Doesn’t even compile on my system, which is apparently broken:

A GTK 4 application showing an empty window uses about 160 MB of RAM:

$ wget https://movq.de/v/138ab3e622/win.c
$ cc -Wall -Wextra -o win win.c $(pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk4)
$ ./win

It also takes several seconds to start on my machine because it is compiling shaders and initializing DRI (it’s faster on the second run, unless you happen to lose ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache/). This might be a hint as to why it’s using so much memory: There’s obviously much more going on behind the scenes these days, not just a little bit of internal housekeeping and then creating a window.

The CTO and creator of Ruby On Rails did all the sums and came up with an e ... ⌘ Read more

So… Just out of curiosity (again), back of paper napkin math. Based on Vultr pricing, running my infra in the “Cloud”™ would cost me upwards of $1300 per month. That’s about ~10x more than my current power bill for my entire household 😅 (10 VMs of around ~4 vCPUS and 4-6GB of RAM each + 10TB of storage on the NAS)

Hoy leí bastante, aprovechando la mañana del domingo.
Ya terminé el libro sobre el Telégrafo. Es simplemente impresionante. Sobre cómo los fenómenos que se prometen en Internet, de salvar la humanidad, ya se visualizaban en 1850. El siguiente en la lista es “Internet is my religion” que tiene cierta conexión con mi carrera sobre diseñar tecnología.

Y cómo no cerrar con las 4,000 semanas. Sobre no vivir para trabajar, descansar lo correcto. Saber decir suficiente de acuerdo a nuestras ambiciones.

Buenas lecturas para actuar mucho.

Ahora tengo bastantes cosas en la lista de Netflix. Cómo veo 1-4 horas de video al mee, no dejan de acumularse cada año.

Por ahora estoy viendo Fyre.
